Carnth will be happy to hear that in the Account Settings you can now configure (turn on/off) receipt of some of the emails, including trade notifications, asset notifications, dividend notifications, and withdrawal notifications.

Yay! Anyone who runs multiple assets will agree: you get a lot of emails.

I didn't make an option to turn off the asset holder lists that come every 12 hours.  I'm not sure I should.  Would be better for those if you just put a filter in your client that puts them in a long-term storage folder.  Wink

I do keep all my asset holder list emails. This is still the best part of your exchanges.

But when I get a dividend on my Asset accounts and my personal accounts, then number of emails add up quickly. All in all, its not a huge problem. Just a convenience.

Anyway, thanks again!

I forgot to mention too, there's a new option in there that isn't implemented yet, which is a daily portfolio digest.  My goal, once implemented, is that users will be able to receive a summary of their portfolio once every 24 hours, including a summary of their current orders.  I had forgotten how pissed I was that I couldn't remember what all I had on GLBSE, and Nefario never sent the end users a summary of their portfolio at closing time, so I still don't know if there are some assets I forgot about that I should be trying to collect.  Anyway... that led me to want to implement an automated update for users that want it.  Should be able to roll it out in the next week or so.

Cheers.

Hey guys, it's a good idea to make an each account for every 30 btc worth of stocks you own, cause a stock exchange is supposed to increase liquidity, not reduce it  Grin Grin Grin

Well, if burnside grasps the concept of liquidity  Shocked

Are you referring to the manual withdrawal process?  Multiple accounts would only help so much.  Once the hot wallet is empty everything becomes manual.

I've tried to strike a good balance between risk and reward.  I believe it's in everyone's best interest to not have a wallet sitting out on the web with thousands of BTC in it.  Smiley

Cheers.

Feature requests:

Please add an indicator that shows when voting for a motion is done. Shareholders can tell because the voting buttons are there, but everybody else (especially the issuer) has to look at the dates.

Done

Also, a way to edit a motion might be useful (with restrictions, of course).

It's on the todo list, but fairly low priority.  Only thing I can really see being "editable" is to cancel the motion, or maybe an input field that would allow you to append to it?

Edit/Add:

Carnth will be happy to hear that in the Account Settings you can now configure (turn on/off) receipt of some of the emails, including trade notifications, asset notifications, dividend notifications, and withdrawal notifications.

There is also now internal asset transfer support in the OAuth API and some big improvements in the OAuth API FAQ entry.

Cheers.

N00b question. Is there anyway to move stocks between exchanges?

Some of the passthrus this is possible.  Passthrus on BTC-TC for assets on MPEx I think the operators will transfer to your MPEx account for instance.  Passthrus on BitFunder for assets on BTC-TC can likely be transferred to BTC-TC.  And some of the MPEx assets have passthrus on both BitFunder and BTC-TC, with the same issuer (GSDPT/S.Dice, DeaDTerra) so those issuers might be willing to work something out.  Bottom line is you have to contact the asset issuer and ask.

And there's always trading between users, ala:

Between exchanges? No. But if you have GSDPT shares and you want BitFunder shares, PM me (small fee).

Smiley
I will go BF-BTCT-MPEX any combinations for free Smiley
So just send me a Pm if you want to change where you have your shares.

Oh cool! I was under the assumption that you don't do mpex withdraws anymore  Tongue

This is only a small issue at the moment.

I just made a small BTC withdrawal: https://blockchain.info/tx/d1d92f8f20844a37b83d6fe2112b95f0b7e6b224addfc971328f526dab3912bd

11 inputs under 0.001 BTC. This caused the Bitcoin TX fees to be 3 times higher than I expected.

What in the world are all these dust transactions? Bitvisitor? Dailybitcoins?
Come on people, if you want a free online wallet to collect your "Free Bitcoins" then please use an actual online wallet and not an exchange.



Burnside, is there a way that your wallet can sweep all these dust inputs together so they don't cause high TX withdraw fees? Maybe once every so often, have your wallets pay themselves with no fee. Pay with 3 dust inputs and another input that's at least 1.0 BTC or higher. It make take a long time to confirm, but the dust will be consolidated.

I think it's gotta be the tiny divs getting withdrawn or something that is causing the inputs to get split up.  What's your favorite howto on cleaning things up?  I'll read through it and see what I can do.

There is no automated service that does this.
Moving shares between exchanges is a very manual process.
Like Burnside said, you will either have to speak with the asset issuer OR find some one (like TradeFortress) willing to trade.

I've been doing semi-statements with most dividends, but they're in the LTC-GLOBAL thread here:

http://forum.litecoin.net/index.php/topic,551.0.html

I'm going to have to break down and do some kind of spreadsheet or google docs or something so we have better tracking over time.  Or maybe a new page on the site just for the financial report.


Hi can you link to a post in the 42 page topic on the litecoin forum where the latest semi-statement is please? Thanks.

What about reducing fees for larger traders or for people who provide liquidity ?

An idea just hit me.  What about zero fees for people willing to subscribe annually?

Eg, for 35 BTC (less than 3 BTC/mo) you'd get a year of free trades.

Thoughts?


Sounds interesting to me, or at least a very standard subscription model, though I'm not likely to qualify for any discount plan myself anyway. Might even be able to offer a 3.5 BTC monthly price too.

Breakeven happens at 17,500/yr ~1500/mo and it could open up some interesting options for small spread trading.

Would you be want to give this to people automatically at a higher break point? Possibly ~2k/mo or 20k/yr and letting them know they could get it cheaper by prepaying?

I thought about monthly, but the problem is that with BTC you can't auto-charge anything except their existing account balance and I don't really want people to be able to go month-on, month-off, month-on, etc.

I do think if we do this it'd be a good idea to track volume on a per-account basis in the account info page or something.  Then when a user gets close (or goes over) break-even the system can prompt them for a subscription.

The more I think about it, the more I think this could work out nicely.

That's part of the premium built in, or maybe 1 BTC to switch on if less than a yearly plan and allow people to auto draft their balance for a preset number of months? Though then you run into issues if it goes dry for a month.

It's a different setup, but whatever people want to pay for I figure. May well be something to stick on the backburner if you don't think what you'd want to charge for it given the extra work is reasonable.

It's certainly an interesting idea. I'd be interested to see more people trading in ways that fees make prohibitive, any gain is profit at that point

Offer different plans:

  • Quarterly
  • Biannual
  • Annual

Give slight discounts to the longer periods and you are done.

3 months shouldn't be to much overhead, and still give users a chance to "try it out" with out too much commitment.
